This was the best fun my family had during our recent trip to SI. The ride took about 30 minutes & was constantly filled with surprises at almost every corner of the ride. The ride will put your driving skills to the ultimate test! It was well worth every dollar paid. IMO, it is one of a kind & uniquely... More

The buggy's are a lot of fun. Up the hills, down the drop offs and through the swamp I laughed the entire time. I got a good covering in mud for my fun which is made easier by the waterproofs they provide. Would definitely do it again More

We had a fantastic time giving this a go. Once we'd put on our protective clothing we excitedly climbed into our buggies - 2 adults & 2 kids under 10yrs. After a brief practice session we were off, following John our leader. The track was through a paddock and the sheep soon got out of the way, over ramps, up... More

This was a heap of fun. The track was exciting with lots of different activities. the owners had exactly the right balance between safety and risk, and were very thoughtful and patient. I went with my teenage daughter who drove half way and she absolutely loved it. i would really recommend this trip either to families or older teenagers. More

We only went to Wild Tracks on a long weekend visit to Motueka, courtesy of Grab One. It was the day after a lot of rain so the track was pretty muddy but that's what it's all about right? Why would you do a 4WD buggy driving experience if you didn't want to get dirty? ;-) We opted not to... More

We had the chance to experiment the fun buggy ride with John and Maree. Such a big track which brings you through so many different landscapes ! We didn't expect so many great sensations.... especially when you never drove before.... Maree and John really care about you, your safety and of course they make sure you have a... lot of... More

Wild Tracks is the absolutely best Go Kart track I have ever been on. The set up is excellent with heaps of neat activities for the people that aren't riding, our hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the scenery was stunning; in short if you are on the South Island it is well worth your time to visit Wild...
